Our mission & Why We Care
At Xplorable, we’ve come to value and understand that the future of humanity lies within local communities and the independent businesses that call them home. We're using the resources we have—our passion, our energy, our voice, and each other—to dare to make a difference. For those who dare, win.

How it all started...
From the streets of Lashkargāh in Afghanistan to the bazaars of Baghdad in Iraq, whilst serving in the British Special Forces, our founder Greg, repeatedly experienced and shared simple acts of humanity in situations where you would probably not expect it.
Often or not these experiences came about through the need to trade. Whether buying bread from the local baker in Afghanistan or coffee in Baghdad, these opportunities to trade on common ground pulled down barriers.
In 2013, having left the military and back in the UK, Greg came to realise that he didn’t want to live in a world where these opportunities to experience different people and trade didn’t exist. Enter xplorable, and a passion to build an alternative economy that revolved around independent businesses—the common ground wherever you are in the world.
